What’s the next kitchen item you plan to buy (2025)?

I find that when poaching if I use a spatula to flip water on the egg, like you're frying it, they cook evenly and quickly.

Let’s see it.

$20USD stainless steel and can be used as a fry pan also.
All parts are dishwasher safe, YAY and for the price, if I hate it, it goes to the charity shop and I won't cry about it.

My MIL bought me a similar one awhile back. It's not the same as poached. But yours is a better quality pan and having the stainless fry pan is nice.

Soft boiling eggs is quite easy. Poaching takes a bit of practice and eggs must be super fresh.

I can never soft-boil an egg to my liking, but I have no issue with turning out (what I think are) perfectly fine poached eggs.

Well, done and done.
Ordered both Egg Poacher & Digital Scale, either were horribly expensive so if they're trash, off to the charity shop they go.
I will report back on they're performance.

I can buy 2 weeks of groceries for that...

A bit late to the party, but we had an egg poacher like that
It works but is not the same as a "normal" poached egg. It's more like a steamed egg.
All that remains of it now are the 'egg holders", which I use to measure out rice and as oversized spoons

I had one, not sure what happened to it. I just remember it didn’t dishwasher well so was quickly relegated to the back of the shelf, WHAT? wash it up by hand, madness
